Chapter 860 Zhu Aoshan meets King Wuyang
"Brother-in-law, I'm fine." Zhu Aoshan lifted the black hair on her forehead that blocked her vision. "It's just that one crew member was seriously injured and five were slightly injured. In addition, we deviated far from the original channel and found an inhabited area nearby.
islands."
Zhu Yuluo also joined the video group.
She said: "Granny, through normal storms you have seen how dangerous sailing is. If you regret it, you can return now and return to Ming Dynasty via Luzon."
"Sister Huang, sailing is very dangerous, and the scariness is beyond my imagination." Zhu Yusheng said with a serious face, "But I don't regret it. I will definitely complete the circumnavigation!"
Once again, the persuasion was fruitless, and Zhu Aao couldn't help but sigh softly and said no more.
Aunt Zhu didn’t talk any more here.
Soon, the Mingyue approached the eastern island.
Zhu Yushan and others discovered that this is an island group composed of a large island in the east and a series of small islands in the west. Those smoke pillars came out from the large island in the east.
After discussing with Zhu Yushan and others, Liu Guoxuan felt that there was no need to explore the small islands and reefs in the west for the time being, so he drove the Mingyue to sail directly to the large islands in the east.
When the Mingyue arrived at a natural harbor on the big island in the east, they were surprised to find a relatively simple pier there, and a medium-sized sea-going ship with a missing sail was moored there.
On them are the Ming Dynasty flags with red sun and moon, and the words "Tang".
When He Ming saw this, he couldn't help but said in surprise: "There is actually a ship led by the Tang Dynasty here?"
Chen Yonghua guessed: "The king of the Tang Dynasty is in Yanzhou. Logically speaking, even if it develops rapidly in recent years, it will not expand its territory to this small island in the East."
However, Zhu Yueshan suddenly remembered something and said: "In the eighth year of Zhaowu, the Seven Kings conquered Yingzhou and also encountered storms on the Visayas and the east side of Mindanao.
In this storm, three medium-sized ships were lost, one ship led by King Tang and two ships led by King Lu. In addition, King Zhu Yue of Wuyang, the fourth brother of King Tang, also disappeared in that storm."
Chen Yonghua said: "Master Bai, what you mean is that the people on this island are probably the missing King Wuyang and others?"
"Really? We'll find out later."
As the Mingyue got closer to the pier, the scene on the shore became clearer.
I saw a lot of wooden houses built on it, all of which were in the Ming Dynasty style. Probably due to the lack of tools and materials, they were all relatively simple.
At the same time, a group of "savages" wearing animal skin aprons also gathered on the pier, jumping and jumping, seemingly cheering loudly.
Zhu Aisheng took a closer look with binoculars.
I found that although most of these "savages" had beards and darker skin colors, their facial features were more like those of Ming Dynasty people.
Liu Guoxuan was not careless here. He summoned the Qinglong Camp soldiers on the ship and ordered: "Be on guard after the ship docks. If anyone tries to seize the ship, shoot him on the spot!"
"As you command!"
···
On the dock.
King Zhu Yu'e of Wuyang looked at the battleship Mingyue that was about to dock. He couldn't help but burst into tears with excitement. He had no image of a prince.
The same goes for Wang Xing and others around him.
They stayed on this island for more than six years. In the first two or three years, they had been hoping that the ships of the Ming Navy would find this place so that they could return to the Ming Dynasty or go to the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
But as year after year passed, not even a single sampan could be seen on the sea, let alone the ships of the Ming Navy.
As a result, they gradually became disillusioned with leaving the island.
In addition, everyone married several women from the island as wives, and gave birth to several sons and daughters, so they all lived down-to-earth on the island.
As for the original indigenous men on the island, they killed nearly half of them during the conquest, and the remaining half were used as hard labor. After a few years, there were only a few hundred indigenous men left.
Zhu Yue and others thought that in a few years, as all the indigenous men would die out, they would become the masters of the island and continue to multiply here for generations.
I never thought that six years later, an armored warship from the Ming Dynasty Navy would arrive here!
This means that they have a chance to return to the Ming Dynasty or go to the Tang Dynasty.
When the Mingyue stopped at the simple pier, many people were really excited and wanted to get on the ship directly.
However, when they saw the five gun ports exposed on the side of the Mingyue and the Qinglong Battalion soldiers standing with guns on their deck, these people calmed down and took a peek at Zhu Yu'e and Wang Xing.
Soon, one of Liu Guoxuan's sentry commanders, also the deputy captain Lin Guowei, disembarked and boarded the dock with a group of soldiers.
Zhu Yu'e did not dare to drag him forward, so he immediately brought Wang Xing forward, cupped his hands and said: "Wuyang King Zhu Yu'e is in trouble here, I wonder which soldier of the Ming Dynasty Navy is facing him?"
Lin Guowei returned the salute with his hands raised and said: "Qinglong camp sentry is at Lin Guowei, he has seen King Wuyang.
This ship is Princess Kunqing's voyage around the world, and we were ordered to escort it. We encountered a storm east of Mindanao and got lost here."
Is this Princess Kunqing’s ship?
Zhu Yue was surprised at first when he heard this.
After hearing what Lin Guowei said, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "You also lost your way here due to the storm? Maybe you can go back?"
Lin Guowei said: "With the power of the Mingyue Horn, it is certainly possible."
Zhu Yu'e calmed down a little, and then said: "Xiao Wang wants to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I would like to ask Lin Shaozheng to pass the news on my behalf."
Lin Guowei smiled and said, "Of course it's okay to pass the message, but I still ask King Wuyang to tidy up his appearance. In addition, those people on the dock who should be evacuated should also evacuate, so as not to disturb Her Highness the Princess."
Zhu Yue looked around and knew why Lin Guowei said that.
Among them, only he, Wang Xing and a dozen management staff were wearing relatively complete clothes. The rest of them only wore animal skin aprons, and they all opened their chests. It looked very unsightly and was indeed not suitable for welcoming people.
Princess.
Therefore, Zhu Yu'e and Wang Xing immediately ordered the people below to disperse who should disperse, and go back and tidy up their appearance if they should.
Just like that, after a while, the people on the dock were cleared.
Zhu Aoshan got off the boat and saw Zhu Yue who had tidied up her appearance.
She didn't know the difference in seniority between them for a moment, so she simply handed over her hands casually and said: "Is King Wuyang okay here?"
Seeing Zhu Yueshan as a "family member", Zhu Yu'e was still a little excited and said: "It's not bad. After all, more than a hundred people were in trouble together at the beginning, so we can take care of each other."
Zhu Aishan said: "When King Wuyang was in trouble, the imperial sister ordered the Nanyang Navy to search for him in the waters east of Mindanao. Unfortunately, the search for several months failed.
Fortunately, the Mingyue is here due to a storm today - although the Mingyue cannot take you all away, when we arrive at Tang Wangling or Yingzhou, we can inform Tang Wangling or Yingzhou Dusi of the waterway and ask them to send a ship to pick you up.
Of course, if King Wuyang is in a hurry to leave, he can also take the Mingyue."
After listening to Zhu Aosheng's words, Zhu Yu'e became calmer.
Looking back at the island where I have lived for six years, I actually felt a bit reluctant to leave.
After coming back to his senses, he showed a complicated smile and said: "I'm not afraid of Her Majesty's jokes. More than a hundred of us have lived on this island for six years. We have all married and have children. We have also cultivated many fields. We are all prepared to do it."
I have plans to live in this generation.
If I want to leave now, I am really reluctant to leave. If the court allows it, Xiao Wang hopes to use this island as a fiefdom."
On the other side, Zhu Yuluo has been watching this side through WeChat video.
Hearing this, Zhu Aina couldn't help but smile and said: "If King Wuyang wants to rule over the Tang Dynasty, he will not only entrust such a large area.
When he was hit by a storm and ended up here, the imperial court had some responsibility. Since he likes it here, just give him the island."
